Kee Opportunity

Here's a question or two:

1. What actions have been implemented by yourselves as a company over the last 12 months in reaction to the global decline in paintball?

2. If money was no object and the acquisition was there for the taking, what company would be at the top of your list?

I'll certainly ask him but I'll have to wait for the hysterical convulsions of laughter to stop before I get his inevitable response, which if you haven't guessed already would be ....'er, no thanks'.

Retail paintball stores in the UK lose money not make it ....... as a stand-alone business they just can't support themselves; we need a much higher transition from woodsball to tournament to change that around I'm afraid and until we get the tournament product right, that transitional number won't improve.

Well, I kinda knew that would have been the answer.

It's a huge shame really, paintball is a great sport... Well, imho it's the best. We just need more people to play it.

I know what you mean about the transition from woodsball to tourney. It's just, I for one really can't see myself enjoying tournament at all, although I havn't had a chance to play it yet, I assure you I will be trying soon

Thanks again Robbo,

Dan.

I would like you to ask Billy. "How do we save our sport?"

I played tournament style, hated it, woodsball imo required more stealthy and tactical play than the torny style, i for one think theres plenty of people playing paintball. :S probably just me but hey, we're the same person dan, if i dont you almost certainly wont lol

If the marketplace does start to pick up, which area of paintball do you see the growth emerging from?
